Abstract Local and average mass transfer rates from a rectangular cylinder having various width to height ratios are measured using naphthalene sublimation technique, and influence of flow characteristics on mass transfer is investigated. The experimental apparatus comprises a wind tunnel, a naphthalene casting facility and a sublimation depth measurement system. Mass transfer data are compared with those of heat transfer which are obtained using thermocouples in the constant heat flux boundary condition, and analogy between heat and mass transfer is examined. The reasons for discrepancy in both transport values are explained in detail.
